Abstract:
This paper describes an innovative approach using a wireless ad hoc and sensor network solution in a borehole telemetry system. This contribution is in line with the wireless network track of the conference with regards to channel modeling and characterization as well as wireless applications and services. The paper further validates the feasibility of achieving a reliable wireless communication network underground with real-time data acquisition with respect to the described borehole telemetry system.
